Bevel-Up: Drugs, Users & Outreach Nursing

“Bevel Up" is a compelling, award-winning documentary that chronicles the work of the BC Centre for Disease Control street nurses as they provide compassionate, effective - and non-judgmental - health care to men and women in Vancouver’s inner city. Harm reduction is a cornerstone of this “best nursing practice”.

“Bevel Up” is an interactive educational tool that combines a 45-minute documentary with an additional 3.5 hours of in-depth expert interviews and additional footage structured around the key ethical, practical and legal issues faced by health practitioners – questions that examine the intersection of health care and drug use.
